Philosophy
The
"Success First" Alternative School is a
non-traditional educational environment dedicated to meeting the needs
of students who are no longer able or choose not to participate in a
traditional school environment, yet desire an opportunity to complete
their education.
To meet
these needs, school personnel will provide a structured, nurturing
environment in which all students will be given an opportunity to obtain
credits toward graduation in an atmosphere which fosters personal growth
and achievement. The program has basic goals centering on building
personal pride and accomplishments so that students will be able to meet
the challenges and responsibilities of today’s society and enhance a
desire for life-long learning.
